I had a problem where LMS would not display the playlists in the
browser.  When I looked at the server log there were lots of messages
like:

NOTE: Is there a way to stop the forum software from converting colon
sequences to smiley icons as above?

I tried upping the number of open files on the system to 65535 to no
avail. Even rebooting the system didn't help clear the problem.

A side effect was that the playlist display was missing but the current
track being played was shown. I couldn't clear the playlists (no button)
and I couldn't add anything to the playlists.

I finally had to remove the playlists in /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs
and restart LMS to gain control.

I'm confused by the tmp:/// designation in the URL of the track location
as I also see file:/// used which would seem more appropriate. To avoid
a future problem under what conditions would the tmp:/// designation be
used by LMS?

Has anyone else encountered this problem?
